Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1345420A2] An image pickup apparatus includes a front and a rear camera for generating video signals from scenes in a first direction and a second direction and a signal processing device that changes one of a frame rate and a compression rate of the video signals in the first and second direction. The apparatus further includes a detection device for detecting that a state of the apparatus matches a predetermined condition for changing the frame rate and/or compression rate of the video signal and a controller for controlling the signal processing device so as to change the frame rate and/or compression rate of the video signals in the first and/or the second direction on the basis of the detected condition. <IMAGE>An image pickup apparatus includes a front and a rear camera for generating video signals from scenes in a first direction and a second direction and a signal processing device that changes one of a frame rate and a compression rate of the video signals in the first and second direction.
